GERMAN KITPLANE MANUFACTURER Dallach is selling a new side-by-side two-seat aircraft, known as the Fascination D.4, in France and Germany. Previous Dallach designs have been open-cockpit mono and biplanes, such as the Sunrise II, in the ultralight and microlight classes. The Fascination is a sleek steel-tube-fuselage airframe with a bolt-on composite shell powered by a 60kW (80hp) Rotax 912, with a cruise speed of 135kt (250km/h). The 9.1m-span wings are a mix of steel tube, composite, wood and fabric. The tri-gear is retractable. The company flew the aircraft for the first time earlier this year at Mengen.
